Lisa Renee Maxwell (Rogers) entered into the embrace of Heaven on the morning of Monday, April 6, 2026, at the age of 62. She passed peacefully in her sleep after suffering from complications of many chronic conditions.
She is preceded in death by her parents, Ada MulHolland and Andrew Jackson Rogers, her brother David Rogers, and her twin babies Jason Cardillo and Ada Cardillo. She was a beloved wife to her husband John Maxwell. She was a loving mother to her children Michelle Heffernan, Gary Heffernan, Jennifer Vitale, Shlanda Burch, Joshua Genovese, Breeanna Madrigal, and Sean Maxwell. She was a loyal sister to her siblings Connie Rogers, Terry Reaves, Kimberly Wilkins, and Michael Rogers. She was a doting and adoring grandmother to her many grandchildren.
Lisa touched many lives through her work as a registered nurse. She spent many years caring for hospice patients and their families, offering comfort and support to those who needed it most. She is remembered and revered for her work with the vulnerable, who were always grateful for her empathy and expertise.
Lisa Maxwell’s greatest joy in life was her children and grandchildren. Her passion was gathering her loved ones around her, where she could create the most decadent meals and share in laughter with the people who meant the most. She spent her years creating and nurturing a loving family that she was most proud of. Through to the end of her days, the thing she loved the most was to reminisce on all the precious memories she was pivotal in creating.
Lisa loved to spend time with family, travel, create beauty through her crafts, nurture life into her garden, and cook delicious meals for those she loved. She believed life existed in the small, simple moments. Like laughing at a good joke, taking in a beautiful sunset, the smell of the ocean, or cuddling a sleepy baby. Her hope in life was to leave a legacy of love that her family can hold close through their days.
Services: Memorial Visitation will be held at KUTIS SOUTH COUNTY CHAPEL 5255 Lemay Ferry Rd. on Sunday, April 12, from 1p.m. until time of service 3 p.m. services will conclude at the Funeral Home.
I love you little sister! RIP! ❤️
I will never forget you, Lisa. I was blessed to have known you and we shared many good and challenging times together. We worked together, we prayed together and we laughed together. You were relentless in advocating for the comfort, dignity and the best possible quality of life for our hospice patients. You made me and everyone around you better. You could always make me laugh and my only regret is that too much time passed since I last saw you. I love you and I thank God for the privilege of knowing you. Rest in peace my dear friend.

Condolences to family and friends. My time around Lisa was limited but am grateful for the time I shared with her and John at Ada’s funeral. It was easy to see that she was a caring woman that gave priority to others before her self.. grateful for Gods love
Lisa, you are truly going to be missed. It was a privilege to know you. You were one of a kind.
You taught me so much throughout my career, and I wouldn’t be where I am today without your guidance.
Thank you for your time, your patience, and your kindness.
I love you. Until we meet again.
Rest in peace.
